About two months ago that most iuiec-

the southern part of the city and swept
norihward leaving eight OF nine hundred
persons ill and about fifteen dead. Some
days as many as eighty cases were reported
20 the Board OF Health. That number is
greatly decreased now, and yesterday Only
seven gus were pat Up. Most of the sui-
ierers are conyalescent, and over three nun
dred permits 90 allow children 10 return to

condition that their homes be fumigated
thoroughly. The epidemic has not been as
bad this year as it was four years ago, but
more cases have been reported. The vaca-

the school children somew bat, and 1t viii
no doubt be soon entirely a thing OF the
past. There are few cases OF diphtheria,

Lying i'm Bed.

II is often n question among people
who are unacquainted with the anatomy
and physiology of man whether lying
with the head exalted or even with the
body. is most wholesome. Those who
consult their own ease on the point
argue in favor of that which they prefer.
Now. although many delight in bolster
ing up their heads at night, and sleep
soundly without injury, it is neverthe-
less n dangerous habit The vessels
through which blood passes from the
heart to the head. are always lesscncd
in the cavities when the head is resting
i'm bed higher than the body; therefore,
in all diseases attended with fever, the
head should bc pretty near on a level
with the body; aud people ought TO ac-
custom themselves To sleep in this posi-
ton to avoid danger fails Journal

Yachting on the Atlantic.

There must be large semi-fashion-
able floating population around New
York during the summer season. All
over the harbOr and up the sound as far
Is Greenwich you will find yachts, vary
ing from 500 sloops to $4,000 schoon-
ers, anchored in quiet bights and inlets,
and serving as lodgings for their
owners and their owners families. On
the larger vessels men and women live,
sailing from place to place rs the humor
catches them. On the smaller ones
bachelor parties hold merry revel.
These latter are nearly always young
men in business in the city, who attend
to their occupation by day, and 60
cruising from Saturday till Monday.
Many Of these merely lease yacht for
the season. They keep the pantry full
of cold meats and easily prepared can
ned stuff and take their able-bodied
meals ashore. One seaman serves TO
help them sail their craft and take care
of il when they are in the city. 1t does
not cost them much, if anything, more
than to pay room rent and board
ashore. and they have great deal
more fun when the temperature is high.

A Noted Joker.


Kenward Philip. the noted joker and
bohemian OF New York and Brooklyn,
was very fond OF practical jokes He
would stand on a street corner at 6
O'Clock. when the horse-cars were load
et 90 Che guards, and suddenly call and
bcc6on wildly To some man hanging on
"by the s&in of his teeth on the rear
platform. His earnest and excited man
ncr would attract the attention Of
all, and the man Signaled out would
anXiously leave his hard-earned place
on the car and rush over 20 discover
what the wild-cycd man wanted. When
he arrived at the curb, Philip, almost
crying with Impotence and irritation.
would push him aside and yell: Not
You, You b,ockhcad. Not YOU! That
Other man there. Now, }ou idiot, you We
made me lose him after ALL and he
would turn away, leaving his victim TO
wall, home or wait an hour for another
toothold ON The cars.
Philip once secured the Brooklyn
thoater for lecture Manager McCon-
nell gave il TO Linn, and the house was
sold out almost entirely to newspaper
men and actors. The audience came
there for a good time and was determine
cd 10 lose no opportunity TO Guy any
thing it could. \ glass pitcher of wa
ter was brought on for the lecturer, and
Mcconnell started the story that it con-
tanned not water. but Gin. Consequent
j. whom Philp filled out full tumbler
and tossed il off, the audience rose as
one man and yelled. and when ne fol-
lowed This up by drinking four more
glasses the people began falling out of
the boxes. Philip hadn't the first idea of
what he WAS 20 say. He hadn't even
chosen subject, much less written a
word upon IL, bat hc began:
